1. 1/1/1997 Water is one of the main requirements for healthy plant growth. Most arid and semi-arid regions, however, suffer from insufficient and unreliable rainfall. In these areas a high rate of evaporation in the growing season is also common. When it rains in (semi-)arid areas, the rainstorms are...
  2. Proceedings of a symposium/ sponsored by Divisions S-1 and S-3 of the Soil Science Society of America. This publication summarizes research in this important area. It will help in understanding microbial-soil environmental relationships as well as aid in managing soil and crops for human benefit....
  3. This SSSA Special Publication presents the outcomes from the symposium. Tomography is a very powerful tool for soil science research. Although tomography has not been widely used for soil science investigations, there are many potential applications of the technology. The papers in this Special...
  4. 20/4/2014 EDN 122 resaltó las variedades multipropósito del caupí con enredaderas extendidas que cubren el suelo. A continuación presentamos una actualización de investigación de ECHO proveniente de Sudáfrica relatando nuestras experiencias a la fecha con una variedad de caupí en cultivo intercalado con...
  5. 20/10/2013 Does a planting basin, like a zai pit, make much of a difference in soil moisture on a sandy soil? Because water leaches through sand rather quickly, you might expect that planting depressions would not have a significant impact on soil moisture. With the soil in ECHO research plots in South...
  6. Este documento corto contiene gráficos y muestra como la labranza cero lleva a un aumento tanto de la infiltración del agua como de la retención de agua en el suelo.
